Brian Cornell
CEO Cornell, with experience at Walmart and Pepsico, is known for being a result-oriented leader who is genuine and well-liked, but may not move quickly enough for Target's needs.
While Cornell is respected for connecting with customers and simplifying complex issues, his effectiveness as an operator is questioned by some former colleagues.
Target's recalibration requires a leader willing to shake up business as usual, and Cornell's cautious approach may not be sufficient for the rapid changes needed.
